I have 2 of these machines running in my farm at all times. I have about 1000+ hours on them and have only minor issues with adhesion (my fault, should've washed plate more) and a weird issue with the filament snaking its way into the extruder gear when I had run out and replaced with more filament. Both incidents haven't happened again. For the money, it's a great machine and perfect to start on a corexy machine. It's helpful to have experience with 3D printing, but not really necessary. Lots of youtube tutorials are available for you to use should anything come up.

I went with the FF 5M Pro and even with the doors open, I get pretty bad heat creep into the HE.
I think it is a combination of bad HE design and bad cooling design.
I bought an enclosed printer because I preferred the compactness of it compared to building my own enclosure. Also, I experienced issues with larger parts coming off the bed and was advised that keeping the ambient temperature higher with an enclosure would combat this. So after purchasing an enclosed printer, only to be told to leave all the doors open for PLA kind of defeats the purpose.
Edit:
Yep, it is. Don't buy this garbage and here's why -

But it's still a very capable printer that usually matches quality and often faster than my X1C for 1/4th the price. Once if the better choices for the sub $300 range in my opinion.
